Meet Tyler. At 20 years old, he is one year in to completing his Bachelor of Business Administration degree with an emphasis in Marketing. For the traditional college student, this would mean he has completed his Freshman year and launching into the second of at least five years. However, because of his hard work in the Accelerate University Program, Tyler is already half-way through his degree and only picking up speed!

It's easy for the Staff atExcellence In Learningto say that Accelerate University is a great program that is a wise choice for degree completion. But it means so much more when you have a chance to hear from one of our clients about what they have experienced personally. So, we asked Tyler to share his experience in the Accelerate University Program with you. See what you think!

When the average person first hears about programs like Accelerate University, it is not uncommon to hear many immediate concerns over what these students may be missing by not taking the traditional path to degree completion.

Is it too good to be true?

Is it a quality degree?

Are they really learning?

Who will want to hire them?

What about the college experience?

Even if the affordability of Accelerate University is a strong draw, parents still worry that it may be a "less-than" option. So we thought it would be helpful to briefly point out our top three reasons Accelerate University is the top choice for degree completion in today's world. Our clients are getting a serious jump on their peers. And we're looking for more who want to do the same!

An entire college degree for less than $10,000 and completed in just 1 year sounds too good to be true to many people. And that's very understandable. Still others suspect that even if it is true, you get what you pay for, so it can't be a very good degree. But is that really the case?

Paul Partridge, co-founder of CompleteCollegePlanningSolutions.com, has pulled back the curtain on the ever-increasing cost of a "quality education." Strangely enough, it seems to have very little to do with classrooms, learning or preparing for a successful adult life.

Each person's life is different from another. This means each person will have different life circumstances that will set parameters on how many test prep hours they are able to accomplish each week. Some clients have been able to focus on their course work and put in 40 hours per week. Others are working study time in after work and on the weekends and are therefore often able to put in only 20 hours per week. While you do have to make test prep a priority to successfully complete your degree, still, whatever time you are able to commit to this is what you've got to work with.

When you purchase Test Success BootCamp, it is because you want to succeed in this process and pass your test(s), thereby earning college credit faster and cheaper than the traditional route. You also want this experience to be the best it can be and to gain as much from it as possible.

We want you to get everything out of it that is possible as well. For that reason, we have listed below several common ways people can "miss the boat." "Missing the Boat" happens when people go through the experience (even sometimes passing the test), but actually miss out on learning the crucial lessons in this process and growing personally as a result. These same things that can cause you to "miss the boat" can also cause you to not be accepted into the Accelerate University program.

Your success in this process depends on you. Listed below are things you can focus on in this process to aid in your success. Clients over time have proven these key areas to be directly linked to success in the Accelerate University program. They have proven this both by following the advice below to test success and by disregarding it and failing.

If you hit a "bump in the road" this list is a great place to come back to and see where things might have gone off track and then make plans for how to "get back on track" quickly.

It is a great cultural myth that a college degree is only valuable and trustworthy if it requires five or more years of sitting in a classroom and thousands upon thousands of dollars paid. While that is the most commonly traveled road, distance learning is catching on and growing at a rate of 20% per year. Many students have already decided it was worth $185 and one month of their time to find out if they had what it took to save themselves more than $50,000 and four years of their lives!
